Sierra Canyon (CA) got 15 points apiece from Kentucky commit BJ Boston and fellow senior Ziare Williams on its way to defeating Gill St. Bernard’s, No. 8 in the NJ.com Top 20, 74-58, at the Metro Classic at RWJBarnabas Health Arena Friday night in Toms River.

Freshman forward Mackenzie Mgbako scored 16 points to lead Gill St. Bernard’s (16-4) and also outduel Sierra Canyon freshman sensation Bronny James, the son of NBA star LeBron James. James finished with six points with two field goals and a pair of free throws for the nation’s 20th-ranked team by both MaxPreps and ESPN.

But Sierra Canyon was able to generate sufficient offensive thunder without big games from James or senior guard Zaire Wade (son of NBA star Dwayne Wade), who played in the second and fourth quarters and did not score.

Williams scored seven points and Yu had six to send Sierra Canyon to a 22-13 lead in the first quarter. Terren Frank scored five of his 11 the following period to help the California team open a 45-31 lead.

Princeton commit Zach Martini and North Alabama-bound Will Socie each scored 12 points for Gill St. Bernard’s. Their Knights have another steep test ahead Saturday night at the Metro Classic when they take on top-ranked Camden.
